[IP] Embarassing question

Hi everyone, I'm very embarassed about having to ask this question. But, I
figured if anyone understood, it might be some other diabetics. I have been
having a problem for about a year, and I'm not sure why. Basically, when my
blood sugar is very high, I notice that I have about 30 seconds from the time
I realize I have to use the bathroom to actually get to the bathroom. In the
middle of the night, for example, if I wake up and have to use the bathroom,
I have mere seconds to get up from my bed, run down the hallway, and use the
bathroom, or I'd probably wet myself. The thing I don't understand is, if
I'm not high, I could have a full bladder and hold it all day and not have a
problem. It's only when I'm high that I have the problem. Does this make
sense? Does it have anything to do with the high sugars or is it
coincidence? My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy when I yell at him to pull over
at a gas station or something so I can use the bathroom, he doesn't
understand the urgency. When I'm high, I feel like something is sitting on
my bladder and I need to go right away or else. I don't know if this makes a
difference, but I've had diabetes for 17.5 yrs and this has been going on for
the last year. Thanks so much for your help, Kelly
